Senator Grant Kirby loses his reelection bid because he refuses to respond to scurrilous accusations made against both himself and his wife by his opponent , Peter Anderson. After his wife's death, Kirby takes pen in hand to set the record straight in an engaging, action packed story of lawmen, Indians, outlaws, love , strength, and survival during the American frontier period. This is another exciting episode in the life of a man whose experiences extend from a riverboat gambling salon, to the rugged hill country of Texas, all the way to the halls of Congress. It is truly a "campfire" tale to savor.
